No Camera = No Blog Posts

A few months ago our camera got stolen at one of Kendys dances. So we have not been able to take any pictures and this has led to no blogging. Yes, this is the best excuse we came up with for our 4 months of not a single blog post. (Our camera did get stolen)
Yesterday was the state track meet. Kendy got second place in the 1600 and 3200. The Orem boys team were favored to win the state championship but instead we got 4th. oh well there is always next year.
California was a blast and everyone had so much fun with all the cousins. We are also all very excited for school to get out Yeaaaaaa! Only two more weeks.

We officially STINK at blogging!

Sorry for the long absence from the blogging world. We will try to be better, but we're not promising anything soon! Some updates:

Kendy did great at cross country state.
Garrett can't wait for it to snow so he can go skiing!
Caitlin can't wait for her finals to be over and then she's FREE!
Mom is happy she's working for Uncle Rob's company.
Brynne can do a back hand-spring!
Dad is feeling like a young men's adviser again, but he enjoys it.
And of course, Rizzo still loves begging for leftovers.

We can't wait to see everyone at Christmas!

BYU Invite!






Kendy and I had our third Cross Country meet yesterday at BYU. The course was very hard with some big hills. We both did not do so hot. Most of the runners on our team added about a minute and a half onto their Pre-Region time, including us. But it was a lot of fun. Kendy got fifth with a time of 20 minutes and 26 seconds. I on the other hand got 80th with a time of 22 minutes and 34 seconds. Hopefully we do better on our next meet.

Our Weekend with Lance (ha, ha)







This weekend Bry competed in his sixth 100-mile Leadville, CO bike race. And although it was not Bry's favorite race (ie: his time was not as fast as he would have liked) it was exciting because . . . hold onto your horses!!! . . . Lance Armstrong did the race as well!!! Bry was seated in the top 100 so he was in the same coral as Lance Armstrong!!! I had no idea I was marrying such an athlete! Oh, my!

The day before the race, Bry was late for the pre-race meeting and decided to just listen outside the door which was behind the front stage. He was standing there listening when Lance Armstrong came walking up with Chris Carmichael (his long-time friend and trainer through 'the tour'.) Bry stood there while Fox 13 interviewed Lance (click this link to see actual photos!) and then asked Lance if he would sign his shirt for Susan (the wife of our biker/blogger friend who is dieing of cancer). Now, ya really gotta hold onto them horsies . . . then Lance put his hand on Bry's shoulder and chit chatted while he signed the Bry's shirt! Oh, my!!

Lance ended up losing the race by 2 minutes to six time reigning champion Dave Weins, but we got some great shots of Lance before and during the race. Take special note of Cheri cheering as Lance goes by! It was a very tricky shot to get! -- we practiced many times before he came by. It was a fun week-end.
